Former WNBA star Chamique Holdsclaw was indicted on six counts by a Fulton (Ga.) County grand jury on Wednesday in relation to a November incident with her ex-girlfriend.

Holdsclaw, 35, faces two counts of aggravated assault, one count of criminal damage in the first degree, two counts of criminal damage in the second degree and one count of possession of a firearm in commission of a felony.

A warrant was issued for her arrest following a violent altercation on Nov. 13 with Jennifer Lacy, her ex-girlfriend. According to police, Holdsclaw fired a pistol into a vehicle while Lacy was in it.

Holdsclaw turned herself in three days later and was released on $100,000 bond.

Holdsclaw is being represented by Garland, Samuel & Loeb, the firm that represented former Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis in a trial related to two murders in 2000. It has also represented Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, Bengals defensive back Adam "Pacman" Jones, NHL star Dany Heatley and rapper T.I.

Attorney Ed Garland said Holdsclaw plans to enter a plea of not guilty. A date for arraignment has not yet been set.

"Our position is that she is not guilty of having committed any assault upon Ms. Lacy," Garland told USA TODAY Sports on Wednesday evening. "The events occurred after an emotional situation between the two of them. She did assault the car itself and damage the car with the baseball bat and firing the gun; however, there was no assault on Ms. Lacy.

"We expect to negotiate a proper resolution to this matter with the district attorney's office."

Lacy, 29, gave Holdsclaw the keys to her vehicle while working out at an Atlanta church that day. When she left, she reported smelling gas in her vehicle. Holdsclaw followed Lacy to a friend's house, according to the incident report.

Holdsclaw then smashed Lacy's 2010 Range Rover with a baseball bat, breaking two windows. According to the report, she stuck a pistol in the rear driver's side window and fired across the SUV.

Lacy, who plays for the Tulsa Shock, was still in the vehicle when Holdsclaw fired the gun but was uninjured. Police recovered a spent 9 mm shell casing.

Lacy and Holdsclaw played for the Atlanta Dream together in 2009. It was Holdsclaw's last stop in an 11-year WNBA career in which she was named an all-star six times. She initially retired in 2007 but returned to play for Atlanta before retiring for good in 2010.

She was the rookie of the year after being drafted first overall in 1999.

An Olympic medalist, Holdsclaw was an All-American at Tennessee where she won three NCAA titles.

After her retirement, Holdsclaw revealed her battle with depression. In her 2012 biography, Breaking Through: Beating the Odds Shot after Shot, she disclosed that in 2006 she had attempted suicide while playing for the Los Angeles Sparks.
